BAKED MACARONI & CHEESE LOAF



Baked Macaroni & Cheese Loaf image

I have texture issues - so this macaroni and cheese is my favorite due to the low "slime" factor! It's more like macaroni and cheese souffle since it has eggs. I adapted this from a church cookbook recipe my mom used to have - but it was very labor intensive. This way works fine for me! I like it because it's quick to throw together and put in the oven. I usually throw in a green bean casserole with it. If you want to try a new version of an old classic - give this a try!

Time 1h5m

Yield 8 , 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup uncooked elbow macaroni
1 cup breadcrumbs
1 cup shredded cheese
1 cup milk
1/4 cup butter or 1/4 cup margarine, melted
3 eggs
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a bowl, whisk the 3 eggs. Add the remaining ingredients to combine. Poor into a greased pan (I use either a bread pan or a 9x13 pan.) Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes. Take off the foil and bake for another 15 minutes. Remove and let it rest for about 5 minutes. Cut and serve.
  • You can also use seasoned bread crumbs and add onions or onion powder, garlic powder and/or ham. Sometimes I put the macaroni and a bowl with water and microwave for about 5 minutes - just to soften them a bit more. Yum! My husband swears this tastes better the next day - so he's happy to have leftovers -- .

A friend of mine sent this recipe to me when I got my first apartment, because she knows how much I hate cooking! It's really easy -- even I can make it -- and tastes great. I'm not sure where she found the recipe, but it included the note 'Good source of protein, vitamin A, B group vitamins, calcium.'

BAKED MACARONI AND CHEESE



Baked Macaroni and Cheese image

Macaroni and cheese may seem an easy proposition. Noodles, cheese. But the secret to this creamy dish with a crunchy and crisp top is American cheese. This is no place for fancy cheeses or fancy noodles. Leave the whole-wheat penne and artisanal orecchiette in the cupboard and bring on the elbow pasta.
